I haven't seen anything conclusive on it as of yet. The list of things that MMJ can assist with is actually quite small.

It's ridiculous to even suggest it. Name one study that shows ANYTHING that can prevent Alzheimer's disease, much less marijuana. The last thing you'd want to put in the hands of someone with severe dementia is a lit joint. Absurd.
